这是个很温暖的画面, 傍晚时, 描绘的是妈妈带着孩子一起回家. 从画面中, 我们看到母女倆正经过破旧不堪的老房子, 大朴在画这幅作品时是在青海省取景, 给我们展现大西北地区的人文景色. 我们可以猜测这应该是个阳光普照的日子, 从老房子以及后面的山坡上我们都可以看出这点, 而画家在处理色彩明暗方面也运用得十分出色. 从母女俩的着装及干枯的树可以看出这应该是秋天时期. 另外, 从破旧的老房子我们可以想象村民的生活环境是多么辛酸, 再加上背后一望无际的山坡, 这一切使整个画面显得有点苍凉, 但当我们看到母女俩归家的温馨画面, 心里突然温暖起来. 这是一幅空间感很强的作品, 给人很多自由想象的空间, 从近到远, 处处都有令人深思的地方.
This is a wonderful scene of a mother and child returning home at the end of the day. We see them just about to round the corner among ruined buildings and walls in this old rural town, on the border between China's Qinghai province and Tibet. We can imagine that it is a bright sunny day, in this mountainous region on the back side of the Himalayas, since we see brightly lit building facades. It appears to be the fall since the trees are bare, and there is an old bird's nest atop the large tree in the foreground. We can also imagine the harshness of the environment, as buildings and walls are ruined, yet still in use.
